>Carnival fountain…#380

>The Carnival Fountain (Fastnacht Brunnen), created by Blasius Spreng, was erected in 1967 and depicts symbols of “Karneval/Fastnacht” – jesters, jokers etc. Fastnacht is a big deal in Mainz.

My favourite part of this fountain is at the base – which shows a forlorn cat who is very unhappy about getting wet. In the photo, only the cat’s tail and haunches are visible.
